Detour

Well, we didn't do any space stuff today, although I had planned on it. We'll have to do it tomorrow. We took a bit of a detour from homeschooling today.
We found out last night, that Jaymi's best friend was in the hospital for a few days, having had a seizure. He just got home yesterday and she wanted to do something special for him. So, we went to the store, bought a little Webkinz (she chose the one he would like the most), some flowers that she chose as well, and a gift bag, and she wrote the best letter to him.
"Dear C***: I hope you are feeling better. I love you C***. Do you love me too? Feel better soon. You are my best friend. From: Jaymi."
She wrapped everything up and we went to visit him and give him his present.


















The other cool thing that we did today (we cleaned the house for the rest of the day, oh yeah, and Jaymi sorted coins as well) was making these awesome tortilla snowflakes. It was fun! You just gently fold a soft flour tortilla in half and in half again, snip wherever you want with scissors, unfold, bake on a greased baking sheet for 5-7 minutes, and then sprinkle some icing sugar on top, shake the excess off, and eat!
Mmmmmm!
